So without wanting to be the bearer of bad news, there's engineering work between Brighton and Haywards Heath on the 13th : (

I'm sure plenty of people are more than capable of cycling from Brighton to Haywards Heath but good to give people a heads up, eh?

Fiddy would have ridden all the way back to London.

Thanks for the heads up, I know that one time, southern provided a bus just for cyclists. There is no reason why the shouldn't so this might be a possibility.

Fiddy did ride all the way back after several roll ups and more than a couple of drinks

I'm going to be geared also, unless it rains, then I'll be fixed. My road bike has more holes than swiss cheese and doesn't like getting moist.

(still one of the greatest spoke cards ever...)
Can someone post the image of the spoke card so I can print them out and sort out an Auckland fiddy ride (there are a few of us here who knew him well). Ta.

PM me your email address gaffer and I'll ping the eps file over to ya

Oliver Schick

I hear a rumour that his isn't happening because of the trains. Really?

I'm unlikely to be able to make it, and haven't heard any rumours, but two thoughts spring to mind:

(1) It wouldn't be a proper Fiddy ride without some sort of cock-up, and

(2) as I said above, he wouldn't have cared much about the availability of trains, anyway.
• #93

flickwg

Less than a week away, this is still happening regardless of trains, hope to see as many people there as possible!

Keep adding to the list.

Markyboy

That's what I wanted to hear...

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
